The 20 kilometers range is not the camp range of the dark orcs.

The four major offensive camps are 35 kilometers away from his territory, and the nearest Blackwater Army camp is also 30 kilometers away.

Therefore, as long as Zong Shen determines whether there are dark orcs within 20 kilometers, he can determine whether Vereesa's journey is safe.

This is a supplementary method he has recently figured out, which can extract key points from complex data patterns.

And use the dynamic guidance function of the map strategy module to intuitively see the real-time status of the target.

The strategy module updates the simplified map according to his requirements.

The first thing that appeared was a triangular mark with the word Vereesa written next to it.

The location is very close to the lake, only about one or two kilometers.

The speed of walking is limited, and even if Vereesa's agility is not low, it cannot compare with the speed of the mount.

Therefore, it is normal that she has not reached the lake yet.

What Zong Shen had previously considered was that since there would be no head-on battle in the territory within a few hours.

Then there is absolutely no problem in taking Vereesa off duty for an hour or two.

After all, Vereesa still has a certain ability to protect herself, and she also has experience in collecting arcane crystal fragments.

That thing is a high-risk item, and fragments the size of a small watermelon can directly send the territory to the sky.

Zong Shen would not be at ease if other soldiers under his command were to collect it.

There is no problem with Vereesa's position, and it basically conforms to Zong Shen's prediction.

But the problem lies near the lake, where twelve circular markers are dormant.

There is a note next to it, labeled "Blackwater Army".

They are distributed in the circle of woods around the lake, and the direction they look at should be the scout troops of the Blackwater Army.

As for the circular markers distributed in other directions, it seems that Lickfire Calrig sent out a large number of scouts.

Wild pastures, wastelands and woods are their best ambush places.

If Vereesa continues to move forward, she will definitely encounter the scouts of the Blackwater Army.

"Looks like I still have to go there!"

Zong Shen frowned and decided to personally escort Vereesa to retrieve the crystal.

After all, one more arcane crystal fragment is equivalent to one more strategic nuclear weapon.

Although the items obtained in the exclusive challenge area cannot be taken away, it is enough to be able to use them here.

It is our duty to protect Vereesa.

Of course, he can also use [Communication Crystal] to contact Vereesa in advance to avoid lightning.

But then it would delay the business and not be able to harvest another arcane crystal fragment in time.

"Everyone is on standby. You are not allowed to leave the shield and contact any dark orcs without my order!"

Zong Shen put away the [Patrol Axe (orange)] on his shoulders, said something to the soldiers waiting around him, and the next moment he ducked out of the shield not far away.

Came to the side of the gray shadow clone who was on standby.

"Hello!"

Zong Shen shouted, and the gray shadow clone shook his head, and the main control consciousness of Lihuo Calrig was connected.

"Are you ready?"

It stared at Zong Shen, and the first thing it asked was whether it was ready.

"Something went wrong and I need to postpone it for half an hour."

Zong Shen replied calmly, pointing to the countdown on the sky above his head.

"The current time is 20:39:56. I will be ready before 20:09:56 in half an hour."

The gray shadow clone was silent for a moment and did not give a timely reply.

The real body of Lickfire Calrig, who was far away in the Blackwater Army camp, frowned slightly.

It was a little puzzled by Zong Shen's sudden delay for half an hour.

However, this was not an excessive request, so after hesitating for a moment, it still made the gray shadow clone agree through its main control consciousness.

"I hope you won't break your promise again."

The gray shadow clone said in an urn voice, obviously still a little dissatisfied with this.

"Don't worry!"

Zong Shen nodded with satisfaction, raised his hand and patted its shoulder, and gray mist swirled with his patting.

The gray shadow clone in front of me is like a solidified form of a large cloud of gray smoke.

To be honest, Zong Shen is very interested in this kind of clone ability. If he can create a similar clone, it will undoubtedly bring a lot of convenience.

Time was limited, so he smiled and retreated behind the protective shield of the [Red Gold Barrier].

A thin force field shield isolated him from the gray shadow clone.

After he left, Lihuo Calrig's control consciousness controlled the clone to raise his hand and sweep his shoulder.

It seemed that he disliked Zong Shen's action of patting it on the shoulder just now.

Zong Shen disagreed with this.

After a series of operations, the initiative returned to his hands again!

"Don't be afraid, little Leilei, my lord is here to help you!"

Zong Shen returned behind the shield and squinted his eyes slightly to sense it.

The coordinate position of the ten-kilometer circle below becomes extremely clear through the spatial induction of points, lines and planes.

The island in the middle of the lake is about ten kilometers away from Zong Shen's territory and not far from Jiang Yi's territory.

At this moment, Vereesa was trudging two or three kilometers away from the lake.

Zong Shen needs two [Wandering Walks] to get there.

So he planned to take a [Wandering Walk] by roughly referring to the directions on the simple map of the strategy module to shorten the distance between him and Vereesa.

After locking the spatial coordinates, a light blue light shone on the spot. Along with weak spatial fluctuations, Zong Shen disappeared from the spot and appeared at the ten-kilometer limit.
